WAITING AND WATCHING.

The Legislature is now in session.
For many reasons, this session will
be watched critically by the whole
state. The new recruits are now
broken to harness, and if there is
anything in them, it is time for it
to come out. The demands, by
way of additions and subtractionS
and alteration, which have crystal
lied since the last session, ar" nu-
mcrouS and extraordinary. Many
Of these demands strike at the
foundation of our organic law, and
the prosperity Of Il state, so far
as it can be affected by Legislation,
will for year, to come be mcnsur-
cd By the ability, conservatism and
wisdom ofth0sc who compose this
honorable body. The spirit which
has brought factions and disscn-
tons into lcgiSlati0ns must be de-
plored by all fai,-mindcd mon.
Envy, malice, and an effort to
gain the approval of tho rabhlc, at
Il sacrifice Of principles; personal
~animOSity and personal friendship;
are Influences, absolutely unworthy
of men in office, and should be be
meath the dignity of Legislators.
The great questions which arise
should be settled, after careful con-
sihcration, not by trickery or kna-
worry, but by the unbiased judy
mont Of those chosen for this pur-
pose. Trickstcrs are out Of place
in legislative halls, and likewise
arc dummies.
The present Legislature will be
called to deal with the ~Agricultu-
raj College problem, the rcorgani-
Zation Of the Department Of .Agri-
culture the phosphate question, the
Constitutional Convention and Il
host Of other measures.
TlirScarc grave questions. How
will they be met? Will the mem
brrs vote according to honest con-
victions, or to gain popularity? Will
they be ovcrawcd by outside intiu-
cnccS" Will they be true to their
constituents.
More important still, than any
spccif" measure mentioned, is an
evident desire all over this state, Il
desire which is fast assuming the
shape Of Il demand in truth, is that
our taxes be reduced to the mini
mum and that assessments be pro-
pcrly cqualizcd. This is the need
Of the hour. Not an indiscrimi-
nate cutting down of salarics-not
II Wholesale ~demuciation Of cNistc-
ry institutions, but an intelligent
revision Of the appropriations, sc
that leaks, ifthcrc to be leaks, may
be stopped, and the peoples money
be placed where it will do most
